Animals As Leaders

Animals As Leaders is the solo project of guitarist Tosin Abasi,
founded around 2007
after the demise of his previous outfit, the DC metalcore band
Reflux.
This is a million miles from metalcore, instead this is mind-bending
instrumental,
jazzy, intricate progressive rock/metal, often defying description.
Abasi's guitar work is incredible, jumping from genre to genre with
ease, clearly a rising star in the guitar world.
Simply stunning.
